Osmotic Opening of the Blood–Brain Barrier: Principles, Mechanism, and Therapeutic Applications

Open access
Rapoport, Stanley I.·2000·Cellular and Molecular Neurobiology

Abstract

1. Osmotic opening of the blood-brain barrier by intracarotid infusion of a hypertonic arabinose or mannitol solution is mediated by vasodilatation and shrinkage of cerebrovascular endothelial cells, with widening of the interendothelial tight junctions to an estimated radius of 200 A. The effect may be facilitated by calcium-mediated contraction of the endothelial cytoskeleton. 2. The marked increase in apparent blood-brain barrier permeability to intravascular substances (10-fold for small molecules) following the osmotic procedure is due to both increased diffusion and bulk fluid flow across the tight junctions. The permeability effect is largely reversed within 10 min. 3. In experimental animals, the osmotic method has been used to grant wide access to the brain of water-soluble drugs, peptides, antibodies, boron compounds for neutron capture therapy, and viral vectors for gene therapy. The method also has been used together with anticancer drugs to treat patients with metastatic or primary brain tumors, with some success and minimal morbidity.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
